Hi all,

Just wondering which one you take?? We're not tying yet just getting ready.

They are usually large and I'm scared to even try.

My doc gave me vitalfol-one. It's a blue soft gel and she said its the smallest.

I might be able to get it down but I'm afraid to try

Thanks

prior to pregnancy i took chewable prenatals by vitafusion to get my folic acid levels up

Hi all, I was banded in 2010 lost over 70lbs great! Had a baby gained back 57 and I'm trying to loose it again... However my husband and i just found out I'm pregnant again... We're excited but I'm scared that I'm going to balloon out out control with my weight... Anyone pregnant with the band and how did u control your weight gain

i gained 35 pounds during pregnancy. did you have full restriction removed? i had half of the restriction removed during the first trimester because i was getting stuck on everything. the rest of the pregnancy i had 3.5cc in a 10cc band. i also ate small meals/snacks every 2-3 hours like i did pre-pregnancy.

i found that i had less sickness in the morning if i ate something right before i went to bed. something small like Peanut Butter and crackers. my doc also prescribed an Rx prenatal that had ginger added that also helped with the nausea called B-Nexa. other than that, some flat ginger ale sometimes helped, but only occasionally. i wasn't stricken with horrid morning sickness, but only mild nausea that lasted like a few weeks, but the typical suggestions/remedies didn't do much to stop the feelings.

My OB said I could take Flintstones chewables with iron as a prenatal. I also have to take a separate DHA supplement -- that's the hard part for me, as lately I have had trouble swallowing it. I have heard that there are some liquid DHA supplements available, so I am going to check with my doctor's office Monday about that. But the chewables work great for your average prenatal vitamin...they have the folic acid and iron needed for the baby's growth.

@Hope: I had to switch to Vitafol-One because the generic ones I prescribed were just not working...love them! I have no trouble taking them and there's no fish oil so nasty aftertaste.

are the vitaband chewables made by bariactric advantage ok to take to ready your body for pregnancy?
